Friend: we’ve got our kid listening to classic music from our childhood. Like Bon Jovi, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, etc. My wife and I: that’s awesome! We should try the same with our kids… -a few months later- Our 7 yo: 🎶🎶I… want… it… that… uhh-way….TELL ME WHYYY🎶🎶 #parenting

Well, it is time. My 10 yr old is officially starting his “health education” unit, aka sex ed. How is he this old already?? Can’t wait to hear the questions he has🫣 hopefully we’ve cultivated the environment and relationship that makes him comfortable asking us anything. Wish us luck! #parenting
